The Vanguard 8 x 42 Spirit ED binocular's light
transmission of up to 90% results in a near ideal viewing experience. Its
advanced lens and prism design with ED glass means you'll get up close and
personal with nature. Besides the premium features and anti-reflection coating,
the Spirit ED 8 x 42 binocular facilitates you to get close and personal with
nature, unveiling details in a way you never thought possible with its 8.2 ft
close focus. Vanguard 8x42 Spirit ED is very comfortable to use and easy to
hold, the cutaway thumb rests being in exactly the right place for the
positioning of thumbs, while the strap attachment lugs are well situated at the
very top of the body, immediately below the ocular. This means they don’t dig
into the skin between the thumb and forefinger.
The Vanguard 8x42 Spirit ED configuration is the most popular choice for
those wanting to have a single full size binocular. Most people can comfortably
hold an 8x power unit for extended periods without fatigue; many cannot easily
keep a 10x binocular steady. The Vanguard 8x42 Spirit ED also provides a
wider field of view than 10x42s, allowing an easier time of keeping fast moving
subjects in your vision.
